<p>These columns might also apply to humor? The right side looks like Improv to me? What do you think? The left side looks "humorless" - and focused on Fear.</p>
<p>For example:</p>
<ul>
<li>Control is perhaps motivated by the avoidance of fear?</li>
<li>Risk is taken despite the fear?</li>
</ul>
<p>What might be a counter-example to my assertion of Humor on the right side of the above picture and fear on the left side of the above picture?</p>

<p>What a wonderful gift to create. You proved that you had learned and that you wished to express appreciation to the professor in a unique manner.</p>
<p>My guess is that it still brings her tears of joy?</p>

<p>Paul, a great question. I have to say absolutely it is for sure how the learning process has been viewed over the years...the left side being the more traditional "mechanistic" view of the transmission of knowledge vs the right side being the more ideal from my perspective where autonomy and creativity and true learning occur and are fostered.</p>

<p>In my second graduate school stint, I took an education course called "A Post-Modern Perspective of Curriculum" which I truly loved and we got into Capra and chaos theory mathematics among other "new " things I'd not been very familiar with. By the end of the class, it had inspired me to paint an oil painting for my professor representing this mechanistic view of how knowledge has been viewed over the years. </p>
<p>Recall floppy discs? On the back side they looked like little stick people to me with a face. I painted a "quilt-like block" pattern of many of those floppy disc backs joined with lines that made them look like floppy disc stick figures and I used "cool" oil colors to convey the coldness of it all. I know that the written description doesn't do the painting justice but she cried when I gave it to her the last night of class before she was leaving for several years of research in Peru. </p> Thanks Walt!

<p>Thanks Walt!</p>
<p>I wonder of "Death by Virtual Meeting" has been written yet and if Five is a big enough number for the Dysfunctions of a "Virtual" team. I am an advocate for Virtual Meetings and Virtual Teams by the way but not so much an advocate for the way they are being managed.</p>
<p>Thanks Walt!</p>

<p>I am generalizing from experience as I know no source of solid data on this issue. Pareto would certainly be an influence but in my experience, it is closer to 90% and I am being "Conservative". Most people lack the desire, discipline, risk appetite, creativity and drive to be entrepreneurs, or self-managed. Starting a company really requires them all. An 85% startup failure rate may be another data point in this fuzzy math, as well as a span of control of managers versus individual…</p>
<p>I am generalizing from experience as I know no source of solid data on this issue. Pareto would certainly be an influence but in my experience, it is closer to 90% and I am being "Conservative". Most people lack the desire, discipline, risk appetite, creativity and drive to be entrepreneurs, or self-managed. Starting a company really requires them all. An 85% startup failure rate may be another data point in this fuzzy math, as well as a span of control of managers versus individual contributors being 7 to 1 - though that is a different issue too. </p>
<p>I am not talking about freelancers or self-employed but real entrepreneurship which means creating something new, disruptive (for a time), large and requires lots of sweat equity, capital and founding team who is willing to take on lots of risk. To manage anything significant this (skill set) must come from somewhere.</p>
<p>We all need some oversight and accountability - even the CEO reporting to a Board of Directors. </p>

<p>Thanks Bob, might these columns also describe how one educates vs. how one learns?</p>
<p>To all - which side reflects how you wish to learn? Which side reflects how you have been taught?</p>

<p>Pat Lencioni has written "Death By Meeting" and built a whole coaching program at the Table Group on the topic. He's also the author of "The Five Dysfunctions of Teams" which dovetails with his approach to meeting leadership, participation, and avoidance. </p>

<p>Bob, </p>
<p>Great question...I wonder what the survey would reveal about "community" in this regard...?</p>
<p>On the management question, are you applying the Pareto Principle to get the 80% number or generalizing on personal observation? </p>
